Happy B’Earth Day!

wow – what an auspicious and synchronous day is today – another day of celebrating our earthmother and this day is the 51st Earth Day Celebration along with two sacred B’earthdays – my soul and the 3rd birthday of a sacred soul family’s birth and a crowning glory of getting to in joy this day with some of my very favorite beings on the planet and speaking of crowning glories, i love this picture of our island home with her corona, her crown shining brightly reheartening us to re-member the birthing process is dark and difficult coming through the birth canal and then the crowning and the birth of astonishing light…

yes, feeling into the astonishing light crowning our beautiful mother brings me into the sacred space of appreciation and reverence for the miraculous gifts of beauty and radical regeneration mama gaia is and bestows on us, so, let’s take this moment of eternity to conspire, breathe together, shall we?

 breathe feelings of peace and love through your heart, our one heart for a few minutes to sync us into the rhythm of our beloved earth… you might want to put a hand over the heart and/or the belly to anchor into the deep earth of being…

now, connect in the heart with all relatives around the planet as we feel appreciation and care for our Earth… feel the collective heart power amplifying the effectiveness of our care…

hold a vision of a pristine restoration for all of nature — oceans, rivers, trees, plants, animals, stars, clouds, minerals…

now see the crown of shining lights as a ring of compassionate heart energy surrounding our planet and see it dissipating humanity’s separation and lack of harmonious cooperation… see all our relations awakening more deeply with an energetic connection with our true nature and understanding our feelings and thoughts and behavior patterns affect cosmic harmony…

take a few minutes each day, if possible, to envision an increasing momentum of people opening their hearts and putting love and heart-felt connection into action…

let’s close this breathing together, this conspiring by sending our compassionate care to all who are experiencing grief and trauma and stress from all the crises we are suffering in this moment of dying to the old to birth the new as your heart, our one heart guides the way…

may we listen deeply to mama gaia, emulate her devocean and compassion and be as she is – holy/wholly vessels of love…

“There’s a revolution that needs to happen and it starts from inside each one of us.”

~ Thich Nhat Hanh ~

just as i wrote yesterday of the demand for revolutionary change, i write of revolution again today as we approach the fifty-first year of globally celebrating our earthmother and her children in this sacred moment of great turning and cosmic rite of passage… the revolution i write of today is one of consciousness, a bold adventure the cosmos invites us to explore as foretold in other moments of eternity by the grandmothers…

there came a time when the grandmothers noticed it was the moment to focus on the good of the village and to remind the earthlings of how to be… they called in the spirits of the ancestors and the teachers and the unborn generations and the spirit of fire to kindle a flame which they nurtured and tendered and placed in the center of the wisdom council where the villagers sat in circle…

the grandmothers called on all the relatives to take a pledge repeating these words… in every action, in every thought, in every decision, i promise to hold the good of the children of all beings in this generation and for seven generations hence and this is my sacred vow…

may all of us tend the inner flame supported by the communion of the invisible realms holding in our one heart and living out this sacred calling to always put first the good of the whole, to do what is best for the children…

and then, peace prevails on earth…

“‘Let Justice roll down like waters in a mighty stream,’ said the Prophet Amos. He was seeking not consensus but the cleansing action of revolutionary change.”

~ Martin Luther King, Jr ~

today, we breathe a sigh of relief as the murderer of George Floyd was held to account and found guilty on all counts of digging his knee into George Floyd’s neck killing him as the world watched in horror and in broad daylight for nine minutes and twenty-nine seconds as the life was choked out of this being who kept saying he could not breathe while calling out for his mother…

we have yet to see justice for George Floyd – that would look like George being alive and dancing with his daughter but today was a small step towards the beginning of the revolutionary change this moment demands… revolutionary change that dismantles the oppressive system of white supremacy embedded in the very founding of the United States and puts in place a real democracy where every being is valued and equal justice under the law is the right of everyone…

our hearts continue to go out today to George Floyd’s family and community and to Ma’Khia’s and Daunte’s and Adam’s and Breonna’s and Travon’s and Eric’s and Freddie’s and Philando’s and Ahmaud’s and Mike’s and Tamir’s and Sandra’s and Ton’s and on and on and on…

 let us take this moment of eternity for us all to join hands forming a bridge across the planet and stand in love for love being justice in every thought, word and deed listening to a litany from the Reverend Dr Yolanda Pierce, the first woman to be appointed as Howard University’s Dean in the Divinity School’s 150-year history, a litany of healing feeling to me like those cleansing waters of justice…

…”Let us mourn black and brown men and women, those killed extrajudicially every 28 hours.

Let us lament the loss of a man, dead at the hands of a police officer who described him as a demon.

Let us weep at a criminal justice system, which is neither blind nor just.

Let us call for the mourning men and the wailing women, those willing to rend their garments of privilege and ease, and sit in the ashes of this nation’s original sin.

Let us be silent when we don’t know what to say.

Let us be humble and listen to the pain, rage, and grief pouring from the lips of our neighbors and friends.

Let us decrease, so that our brothers and sisters who live on the underside of history may increase.

Let us pray with our eyes open and our feet firmly planted on the ground.

Let us listen to the shattering glass and let us smell the purifying fires, for it is the language of the unheard.

God, in your mercy…

Show me my own complicity in injustice.

Convict me for my indifference.

Forgive me when I have remained silent.

Equip me with a zeal for righteousness.

Never let me grow accustomed or acclimated to unrighteousness.”

yes, we have a long road to overturn generations and generations and generations of oppression and still i am inspired by a memory when i was eleven and standing in a sea of black people quietly singing we shall overcome as we mourned the death of another person working for justice,,,

let us take this moment to affirm our commitment to justice and a world where everyone feels safe and respected as a valued member of the family of earthlings and to act unceasingly to bring this to bear beginning with calling your senators to support the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act…

in this moment of eternity, i find myself once again with grandmother spider in the cave of wisdom gestating in earthmother’s womb as she weaves the web of our wandering star creating a beautiful tapestry…

as the old native american story goes, grandmother leaves the weaving for a moment to go and stir the pot of nature seeds and in the interlude, her beloved dog comes over and starts pulling a thread unraveling the beautiful web… ah yes, the great unraveling, coming apart at the seams, chaos and collapse…

we each have so much to learn from grandmother in these potent times of betwixt and between in the cave of wisdom… what does grandmother do in response to the crisis of unraveling? throw up her hands and rail at the gods? reactively act from fear? our ever creative spider picks up a thread and begins weaving an even more beautiful world inviting us to do the same…

and so we are called as well, in this crisis, in this moment of danger and great opportunity to pick up our thread, what is ours to weave for the good of the whole… out of chaos comes creation, yes, it takes chaos to give birth to dancing stars…

take heart, beloveds and follow your thread becoming one with it, one with the cosmic flow being a rainbow thread of luminosity in the web of great mystery enfolded in the embrace of our radically regenerating earthmother…

welcome, well come to this moment of celebration of the astonishing light of being and getting the 51st Earth Day re-joy-sing going early and not really early as every day is a celebration of our mama gaia… join me in beginning with a psalm, a song of gratitude and honoring…

The Earth is my Mother.
I shall not want.
Her hand brings forth the green pastures.
She tarries within the still waters.
She leads me in fields of fruitfulness for my Glory.
Yea, as I walk through the summer of life unto death,
I will not be afraid, for You are with me.
Your womb in the earth will enfold me.
You prepare a harvest before me and bless my home with children.
You fill me with milk and honey.
My cup overflows.
Surely, goodness and beauty will nurture me all the days of my life,
and I will become part of the earth forever…

and now, join me in invoking and actuali-sing this earth bles-sing…

may earth’s song reach us in our deepest and wildest places…

may we hear it as we walk on her, partake of her sustenance and nestle in her waters and grasses…

may we hear the voices of the stone people, the winds, the waters, all creatures and plant people above the chatter so we can heed these voices…

may all who try to conquer earth learn the wisdom of humility from compost and humus…

may compassion inspired by earth’s boundless gifts open polluters hearts so widely that poisons are transmuted…

may our every inhalation and exhalation reverberate throughout the ocean deeps resounding in all watery soul beings…

may dolphins and wolves lead the re-joy-sing howling that all is well…

may we have a cosmic celebration with all our relatives grounding our roots deep into the earth and entwining our branches in the vast skysea…

may our grandchildren’s grandchildren’s grandchildren smile with delight as they share the legends of when we transformed the consciousness of domination and love of power into co-llaboration and the power of love…

and so it is,,, blessed bee…

this moment sings at the frequency of liberation, liberation arising from  letting go; it sings at the frequency of love and surrendering to the cosmic hum which whispers only love is real; today simply sings the call of spirit… i listen and re-member…

ten years ago yesterday, i seem to be running a day behind, a day vibrating at the master frequency of eleven, the LIGHT frequency, i coded and an angel of rainbow tinted white light came into me and flowed through me as she always does in times of troubled waters, in moments of great peril…

spontaneously appearing as a vortex of whirling white light, this winged angel of flight activates a mysterious flow of healing energy sacredly, secretly, silently, softly, supportively, synchronisticly… i hear the team of earthly angels celebrating getting a pulse going in me, i’m returning to the land of the living, returning to the miracle of being breathed alive in this moment, in every moment…

thousandfold thanks, dear angel of light, for watching over us in the dark of the night, in the light of the day, for breathing and weaving the all that is in the rhythm of waves of love energy, home to freely flowing rainbow mystery…

thank you for sharing this journey, for walking home together into the field out beyond where we’re filled with the inner sea of luminescent love energy…

yesterday marked the second year anniversary of the burning of our lady, Notre Dame; today, my intention is to commemorate that fire and another kind of fire as many of us awoke to hearing of yet another horrific mass shooting in the US right on the heels of Daunte Wright’s murder during the trial of George Floyd… the quest ion many are living today and every day is how many deaths will it take before we act? i am so done with living that question and cannot imagine how the people who live this question up close and personally every moment of every day summon the courage and strength to go on interacting in the outer world… i’d hoped with a whole world stopped and compelled to shelter in to cleanse the inner temples with fires of purification, we would see a decrease in outer fire power, a transformation in our collective consciousness from domination and violence fired by the love of power to co-llaboration and peace fired by the power of love…

so here we interbe in this moment of eternity called to purify and reconstruct our inner temples of all thoughts, beliefs and perceptions based in duality and division and disconnection and separation and so missing the mark of oneness… until our thoughts are of pure love and our heartmind is still, our protective self acts as a thief to our true self’s way of unity consciousness… to that end, let us conspire, breathe together into the clean-sing of the temple of our one heart…

see in the center of our being, a large fireball radiating like a sun…

into the center of the fireball, we place anything on the physical plane that is needing to be transformed, that no longer serves… as it goes into the center of the fireball, it is transformed, and the energy of life is released like the rays of the sun…

see this fireball turn into a blazing yellow sun… place into the center of the sun any emotions, desires, energies, ways of running energy that no longer serve… these energies are transformed into radiant rainbow spokes of pure energy…

now the sun turns into a deep indigo blue and we place into the center of the indigo sun any separative thoughtforms, ideas, concepts… as they enter into the sun, these thoughtforms are transformed into radiant spokes of pure energy and are being released into the temple of being in all the colors of the rainbow…

see the soul itself appear in the center of the temple of being… all of the love and the light that’s been released, we offer to the soul’s plan and purpose… this energy rises merging with the group soul quantum field infusing the greater plan…

from our soul quantum field, see and feel an energy of golden light come down through us all descending into our crown center all the way through all our vehicles clean-sing and purifying us for the engoldenment cycle to come when we real-eyes the astonishing luminosity of our interbeing… a la la ho!

may we all come into a deeper understanding of the importance of our meeting in the unitive field and how powerfully that affects everything and effects change throughout every cell in our individual bodies and our collective one body… thousand fold thanks…

feeling a moment of  lost at sea

leads to desiring to suckle in the womb of a tree

breathing in earth mother’s energy

rebirths the wonder of deep mystery

~

every mystical moment, a re-birthday, celebrating and savoring

every morsel, every breath

where we’re always changing and always the same

being and becoming love…

~

may we all luxuriate like a frog baking in the sun on a lily pad in a  moment of divine indulgence when the greatest service we offer is simply being love now and now and now…  and, may we imagine and feel all our relations tuning into this moment as the only moment and the moment where we are all laser beaming love… what a wonderful world, truly filled with wonder…

in joy we rest in a pregnant pause and re-birth ourselves by simply breathing in light and breathing out love in the rhythm of the waves experiencing the deep peace of the inner flow…

shanti, shanti, shantihi…

“Surrender to this light, this Divine consciousness, this Divine joy, and this Divine peace, the victory of Love and the glory of life. Allow and bring this light into the whole body, the conscious mind, the subconscious, and unconscious mind. Through this Love you’ll experience the fullness of life.”  ~ Sai Maa

may we all journey deeply inside into the temple of the tiny space of the heart into the silence of the stillpoint at the core of being with this breath, with every breath…

“Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures.”
~ John  Kennedy ~

on this day, may we come together standing in love for love to invoke peace…

Peace to all beings
Whether near or far
Known or unknown
Real or imaginary
Visible or invisible
Born or yet to be born.
May all beings
Be well and happy
And filled with lovingkindness
Peace to all beings

Within and beyond the imagination
In the world of ideas
In the world of memories
And in the world of dreams.
May all beings
Be well and happy
And filled with lovingkindness

Peace in all elements
Of earth, air, fire and water
Fulfilled in space, time and consciousness
Peace

Peace in all universes
From the smallest cells in our bodies
To the greatest galaxies in space
Peace
And light rising

Peace to all beings
Within each being here
To those beings that have been in the past
And to those beings that are yet to be in the future
May all beings
Within each being here
Be well and happy
And filled with lovingkindness…

may we listen deeply for gaia’s call connecting with the wisdom of the ancestors on whose shoulders we stand  celebrating those who have stewarded earth mother for ten thousand years…

“If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.”
